Caleigh is officially in her "terrible twos." Despite the fact that her temper tantrums, mood changes & whining started long before her second birthday, we don't hold it against her. Hahaha. She is definitely growing into her own person. Here are a few things that she loves:
- putting on her own shoes (as well as anyone else's shoes that are around)
- eating at the table with her own fork & spoon (and getting food all over the place)
- turning up the music on the stereo so she can dance & shake her booty around the house
- climbing up & down the stairs by herself (including falling from the top of the steps all the way down a day before her birthday, which almost gave me a heart attack - she's fine, by the way...no broken bones or concussions. thank goodness!)
- putting stickers on her potty chart when she uses the potty
- speaking her own language (it's mostly gibberish, but she knows exactly what she's saying)
- watching her favorite shows: Dora, Barney & Caillou
- brushing her own hair
- going to nursery at church every Sunday
- playing with anything & everything (except the hundreds of toys she has)
- making a mess around the house so Mommy can clean it up
- talking on the phone (she's practically a teenager)
- watching herself on video
- her "nene" (aka her security blanket - she can't sleep without it)
- talking to Chance & making him smile
- yelling "DADDY'S TOME" whenever Greg gets home from work
- taking naps (Mommy loves that one, too!)
- making a funny "cheesy" smile whenever she's in front of a camera. SEE:
And since she turned two, what better way to celebrate than with two cakes. I made a confetti cake that we had on her actual birthday & then had a Dora cake at her birthday party. Yummy!
We had a small little party for her at home with a few friends from church & our neighbors across the way. It was a success. Caleigh & the girls had fun running around & playing games & visiting. Thanks to Taleah, Aysia, Melia, Kiana, Eme, Meleane, Cassidy & Leah for coming to the party! Caleigh had a blast!!!
Happy 2nd Birthday Caleigh!
We love you!!!
